Gu Nianzhi was excited and started introducing the snack stall to Huo Shaoheng Laughing with glee, she pulled him over and asked, “Huo Shao, do you like seeds ?
Huo Shaoheng looked at her and said nothing
Gu Nianzhi pouted her lips and glanced sideways to Huo Shaoheng The black shades further affirned in her head, I knew the seeds would too hard for an old guy like you

However she continued to purchase another few bags of seeds, so that she would have so the New Year

“Oh you like the rice cakes from Chen Ji? Then I have to try soh the crowd
Huo Shaoheng looked at the three bags of seeds in his hands They were traditionally packaged in red paper and looked beautiful Then, shaking his head, he followed Gu Nianzhi in silence
Gu Nianzhi arrived at the door of Chen Ji and was captivated by the tantalizing strings of glutinous rice She immediately asked for 3 katis of rice cakes
Huo Shaoheng had no choice but to stop her again, ” 1 kati is enough,” he told the vendor “These are just side dishes,” He continued
About to lose her cool, Gu Nianzhi protested, ” Well you said they were good, so what’s wrong with getting more? It’s not like we can’t afford the of rice cakes fro of items on one hand, and held Gu Nianzhi’s hands on the other He turned to her and explained patiently, “The rice cakes at Chen Ji are lutinous rice Your stoestion”
So he was looking out for ed Huo Shaoheng closer to her and continued walking
After walking for a while, a thought dawned upon Gu Nianzhi: “Thesecart over there ?”

NianZhi happily went over to one of the shopping carts She took the bags fro and put the
“Huo Shao, have we prepared the ingredients for the New Year Dinner ?” NianZhi said her eyes were fixed on the fresh lotus roots in the grocery section They looked so good, she was tempted to make braised lotus and pork ribs with the noticed that Gu Nianzhi had her eyes on the lotus roots and thought it was haret some if you like, we can put the leftovers aside”
Huo Shaoheng had a fridge and a cold storage roo out of space
With the ease of the shooping cart, Gu Nianzhi went on a shopping spree
Huo Shaoheng did not need Gu Nianzhi to help hiroceries, as he had all he needed in the kitchen; fro was just a way to fulfil her needs for novelty
Huo Shaoheng thought that most of the iteht her to the dessert section in the supermarket instead
There were many traditional sweets and snacks there, like caraar pine candies, osreen bean cakes These were only exclusive to Di Du during the New Year and not found elsewhere
Huo Shaoheng decided to get some of these sweets for Gu Nianzhi, since his chefs did not kno to hted and let out a bea eyes turned into crescents and her lashes fluttered like butterflies She looked up at Huo Shaoheng with a loving gaze, and leaned closely to hih the crowd in the arcade, Huo Shaoheng had one of his hand on the cart, while he held Gu Nianzhi closely on the other
His tall and charismatic stature stood out from the rest and implied his extraordinary status He had never failed to catch the attention of ladies
As they continued, Gu Nianzhi started to feel warh the cli the season, the arcade and everywhere Gu Nianzhi went had enough warreed and waited patiently in front of a café He ordered an Aarette, and waited patiently for her
Out of nowhere, a char Her white slender hands held up an unlit cigarette Giving hihter, Sir?”
Huo Shaoheng puffed up a suard by his rejection, the lady’s expression changed and sat across Huo Shaoheng, “Do you have to be so rude? All I asked for was a lighter!”
Huo Shaoheng looked at the lady nonchalantly for a while, and shi+fted his attention elsewhere He didn’t seem to have any intention to continue the conversation
Undefeated by the cold response, the lady sat there for a while Eventually she felt helpless frohed As she stood up fro continued to ignore her words
Another teenage girl approached hiave him a cheerful smile and said, ” Hey there, I made a bet with my friends that you would look hotter if you remove your shades! Why don’t we cooperate and split there in front of him
“Oh please, handsome…” , she remained relentless despite the indifference and tried to went up to remove his shades
Many would find it hard to resist such areave her the evil eye and the girl froze in fear from his unfriendly vibes
He continued with a cold voice, “…Scrairl flustered and disco away fro about the bet she had with her friends
It was only ten minutes after Gu Nianzhi left, but several ladies have atte uys around recently; ladies arethe first to strike up conversations!
Huo Shaoheng was speechless by what he experienced and shook his head, feeling lucky that he was the one who brought Gu Nianzhi up She would never dare to flirt with other guys like that
Gu Nianzhi returned with the ice-cream and heard how he dished out his cold rejections to another lady who made her attempt at him
“Hey, that was uncalled for,” Gu Nianzhi said as she sat across Huo Shaoheng, with the ice-cream cone in her hand ” Would you like to try so threw the cigarette butt into the bin by the tree, had a sip of his Americano and smiled warmly, “Yes please”
“You really want to have some?” Gu Nianzhi replied reluctantly as she did not expect that Huo Shaoheng would want to have the ice-crea would be interested in ice-creaht,” Huo Shaoheng responded and pointed at her cone, “I will just take this”
“Eh? But I have already…” Beads of perspiration threatened to fall off Gu Nianzhi’s forehead She didn’t just ate it halfway; she had already licked the entire cone prior…
“It’s ok, I don’t ht ss while stirring his coffee, he continued, “So you are not sharing that with me?”
“Of course not!” Gu NianZhi quickly extended the ice-crea remained still His eyes locked on to Gu Nianzhi arhtly, “Feed ht offguard; Even Zhao Liangze and Yin shi+xiong ere secretly on surveillance couldn’t believe what they just heard…

She was surprised to see a huge part of her ice-cream bitten off, but she was too stunned react
Huo Shaoheng held her hand again and pushed the cone to her lips
She bit the cone without realising that she was eating the part that Huo Shaoheng just ate
